While the large publishers grabbed most of the press at E3, the smaller companies made their presence known with some niche games.

EARTH DEFENSE FORCE: INSECT ARMAGEDDON — This the sequel to Sandlot’s cult shooter Earth Defense Force 2017. But this time around, it’s being developed by a different team, Vicious Cycle Software. Despite a different studio working on the project, the Insect Armaggedon seems to stay true to the whole giant bugs motif. Players can choose from four classes of soldiers — tactical, trooper, jet, battle.
